Ingredients

  • 25g butter

  • 2 brown onions, roughly chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and roughly chopped

  • 5 parsnips, peeled and cut into chunks

  • 1 litre vegetable stock

  • 150ml thickened cream

  • freshly grated nutmeg, to serve

Method

  1. 1. Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat and add the butter, onions and garlic. Fry for about 5 minutes until softened but not browned. Add the parsnips and stock and bring to a simmer. Simmer covered for 20 minutes until the parsnips are tender, then blend to a smooth purée with half the cream using either a stick or tabletop blender. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, then serve with the remaining cream swirled through the soup and a little freshly grated nutmeg.

    Adam's tip: If you're making soup, make more than you need and freeze the rest in portions so that you can break them out as an easy first course. Soups freeze exceptionally well.
